i decline
United Press International
WASHINGTON — The
number of American workers
receiving unemployment checks
dropped by 260,800 to 4.1 mil
lion during the week ending
Sept. 4, the Labor Department
reported Thursday.
In the following week, which
ended Sept. 11, new claims for
benefits also dropped sharply,
by 68,500 to 471,500.
A Labor Department spokes
man said the decline was ex
pected because the period is at a
time when many persons return
to school.
The Figures reflect unad
justed data showing the actual
number of persons affected in
the two categories. Unlike the
monthly unemployment rate re
port, which is based on a survey
of 60,000 households, the un
employment benefits report is
based on the actual number of
recipients or applicants.
The unadjusted figures
showed 3,578,100 recipients
under state unemployment
programs; 24,900 federal em
ployees; 7,000 newly discharged
veterans; 54,000 under a rail
road retirees program, and
454,100 on extended unem
ployment benefits beyond the
normal 26-week period.

NATO wargames conclude
United Press International
GAI BACH, West Germany —
NATO wargames in Germany
came to a close Thursday, and
for dog soldiers who have been
grinding up and down scenic
central German hills for two
JEAN
KILBORN
weeks, “peace” can’t come a mo
ment too soon.
“The problem kicked off at
midnight Sept. 13 and we’ve
been going like hell ever since,”
said Staff Sgt. Saint Houston, of
Colorado Springs, Colo., whose
armored cavalry platoon was
hidden in woods overloooking
the town of Uffenbach.
The maneuvers have taken
their toll on the civil populace as
well.
On Tuesday, near Kembach,
two U.S. Army trucks crashed
into a German house, killing two
womep in thei^ garden.
Army officials report that by
Sept. 17 — five days into the ex
ercise — and the latest date for
which complete figures are
available — there were seven
deaths, 45 injuries and 1,921
separate incidents of maneuver
damage.
The action picked up Tues
day after a weekend lull in
annual NATO maneuvers in
which 70,000 troops from six
countries — including 19,000
shipped in from the United
States — were organized into
“blue” and “orange’ armies. ‘
A drop Monday night
82nd Airborne Division soldiffl
— flown in non-stop from Foil
Bragg, N.C., and dropped ei
masse Sept. 23 — marked ti}:
change between attack and dt
fense for both armies.
Their tactical jump by 350 sol
diers was aimed at a drop zoiit
near Kembach, but the jtiiij)
went awry and landed at
one planeload of soldiers direct
ly into nearby Gaibach.
Minor injuries and slij
damage to the town were te-
ported.
“1 found one trooper shott
ing for help from the secoiiil
story of a barn,” said Maj.
Dye. “I told him to come dora
and he said he couldn’t. He was
hanging by his harness froiM
hayloft, dangling right in froill
of the window.”
After recovering from itsii
tial ordeal, the force took over
the town and after daybreal
captured a hapless military bail!
from the rival 1st Armored Divi
sion as its bus entered town.
